hysterical lyrics

I believe one of the most hysterical things is when people proudly belt out a song that they clearly believe they know, and a portion of the lyrics sound very similar to correct, but are nowhere near what the song actually says. I mean, hysterical ya'll. Now I want to recount some of these instances that I've encountered, and I want you to tell me some you've heard. Feel free to laugh out loud, especially if you're home alone.

When "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie was super popular, one of my sisters [I think it was Sam, and she was small] nonchalantly sang with all her might, "It's nothing personal, myself and I, we got some straightening out to do... and I'm gonna miss you like a job misses their pay check but I've got to get  move on with my life..." The correct lyrics are "I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket..." Creative of my sister's little mind, right? and HILARIOUS.

On a field trip at some point during high school we were being super cool listening to our walkmans on the schoolbus.. someone near me was singing "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks. She fearlessly sang out "I've got friends in low places where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away... but I'll be okay. IIIII'm not big on sausage and gravy, think I'll slip on down to the oasis oohh I got friends... in low places." Correct lyrics are "I'm not big on social graces, think I'll slip on down to the oasis.." Not exacty sure how breakfast food fits in the song but apparently it did in her mind.

And finally, my dear friend Royce who is funny anyway, once upon a time belted out the chorus of "Paint me a Birmingham" by Tracy Lawrence and it sounded like this: "Paint me a bunny hatttttt,  make it look just the way I planned...." Obviously, the correct lyrics are "Paint me a Birmingham." Absolutely no idea what a bunny hat even is, and when I asked Royce, he admitted he doesn't know either haha.

I'm laughing just recalling these situations. Give me more to laugh at, pretty please?!

  1. Donna Lewis: "I love you always forever."

    My lovely husband sings out very confidently: "I love you, always forever. Near or far, push ups together!"

    Correct lyrics: "I love you, always forever. Near or far, closer together."

    At least I know he will love me while doing push ups right?! Haha.. love you!
